Workshop Overview

This one-day, advanced communication workshop offers an opportunity for experienced CHAS staff to work in a small peer group on scenarios relating to complex shared decision-making and communication about ACP and CYPADM when a baby, child or young person  is deteriorating.

It supports the HIS programme: Anticipatory Care Planning in Scotland and the Building on the Best programme in Scotland

Learning Outcomes

• Communicate sensitively and effectively with children, young people and their families about serious illness, deteriorating health and CYPADM.
• Talk about Anticipatory Care Planning informed by an understanding of ‘what matters’ to individual children and their families.
• Aware of the antenatal, neonatal and children’s ACPs
• Discuss treatment options and outcomes within a person-centred model of shared decision-making and Realistic Medicine.
• Respond to anger, distress, collusion and other complex emotions.
  Discuss the benefits and limitations of treatment in a balanced way.

  The communication workshop is based on the EC4H Book:

  Talking about deteriorating health, dying and ‘what matters’
